Alkaline batteries can rupture at high temperatures. Do not use a sharp object to remove batteries. CAUTION Contact your local waste disposal department to properly recycle the batteries. NOTICE Alkaline batteries lose a significant amount of their capacity as the temperature decreases. Therefore, use lithium batteries when operating the device in below freezing conditions. Installing the NiMH Battery Pack The device operates using the optional NiMH battery pack (650 and 650t only) or two AA batteries (page 1). 2 Plug the small end of the USB cable into the mini-USB port. 3 Plug the USB end of the cable into the AC adapter or a computer USB port. 4 Plug the AC adapter into a standard wall outlet.

Installing AA Batteries Instead of the optional NiMH battery pack (page 1), you can use two alkaline, NiMH, or lithium batteries. This is useful when you are on the trail and cannot charge the NiMH battery pack. Use NiMH or lithium batteries for best results. NOTE: Standard alkaline batteries are not recommended for the Oregon 650 models when using the camera feature. 1 Turn the D-ring counter-clockwise, and pull up to remove the cover. Introduction 1
